For me, scraping around all those knots and then having to tiller around them would be like a never ending IRS audit.    :scared:
But it's your potential bow, not mine, and it will be a very cool one if you pull it off.
Best of luck to you.   :)
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.

Jawge, the stave ended up at 64" tip to tip, and my draw length is only 26".

Even if it does not make hunting weight and I have to learn to short draw this one I'll be happy if it just flings 1 arrow.

Even if it doesn't make a bow I am impressed at what you have done so far - that sure is a knotty one.

John - you are definitely a glass half full kind of guy!     :thumbsup:
Enjoy the hunt!  - Mitch

If some animals are good at hunting and others are suitable for hunting, then the Gods must clearly smile on hunting.~Aristotle

..there's more fun in hunting with the handicap of the bow than there is in hunting with the sureness of the gun.~ F.Bear
